Expression of calcineurin and its interacting proteins in epileptic fowl
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Calcineurin (CaN), a Ca2+-calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein phosphatase, is important for Ca2+-mediated signal transduction. The main objective of this study was to examine the potential role of CaN in epileptic brain and its involvement in neuronal apoptosis. We investigated CaN expression and its interaction with various signaling molecules in normal, carrier and epileptic brain tissues of chicken. Our results revealed higher Ca2+-CaM-dependent phosphatase activity of CaN and a correspondingly strong immunoreactive band of CaN A in epileptic and carrier brain samples compared with normal brain. Furthermore, immunohistochemical analysis showed a higher level of expression of CaN in epileptic brain tissue. However, the intensity of immunoreactivity was less in carrier than epileptic brain. We observed that the interaction of CaN with m-calpain and micro-calpain was strong in carrier and epileptic chickens compared with that in normal birds. In addition, the interaction of CaN with Bcl-2, caspase-3 and p53 was greater in carrier and epileptic fowl than in normal chickens. The greater interaction of CaN with various apoptotic factors in epileptic chickens adds to our understanding of the mechanism of CaN signaling in neuronal apoptosis.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
